I chose this song because I love Electronic Dance Music, otherwise knowns as EDM. It is one of the wildest genres because the build-up rhythm replicates the feeling of anticipation in the brain and when the beat drops, the brain produces dopamine. This song holds a special place in my heart because it helped me find myself when I was just in high school and this Halloween I drove to Houston to see INZO perform live at a music festival. Even though we got to his set late, seeing him play &#8216;Overthinker&#8217; was one of the best moments of my life, so I got tickets to see him again in April!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Overthinker&#8217; is a wild song because it actually includes a voiceover from an amazing philosopher, Alan Watts. His healing voice mixed with aesthetic beat drops bring out a feeling of nostalgia. The verse after the first drop speaks to me greatly, &#8220;Most of us would have\u00a0Rather money than tangible wealth\u00a0And a great occasion is somehow spoiled for us unless photographed\u00a0And to read about it the next day in the newspaper\u00a0Is oddly more fun for us than the original event&#8221;. This verse helped me realize that important things in life are not materialistic.\u00a0The philosopher goes on to explain that we lost our senses because of how tied up in our minds we are. This song reminds me to question reality and how I perceive the world around me instead of overthinking and living in my head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"INZO - Overthinker\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/luQSQuCHtcI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Katsiaryna Aliashkevich<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=luQSQuCHtcI\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A song I listen to that I think is really wild would have to be &#8216;Overthinker&#8217; by INZO.
